Using the Remote Transmitter

If you do not open a door within 30 seconds of 
unlocking the vehicle with the remote transmitter, 
the doors will automatically relock.
You can change the relock timer setting.

Customized Features P. 297

You can lock or unlock doors using the remote 
transmitter only when the power mode is in VEHICLE 
OFF.

The remote transmitter uses low-power signals, so 
the operating range may vary depending on the 
surroundings.

The remote will not lock the vehicle when a door is 
open.

If the distance at which the remote transmitter works 
varies, the battery is probably low.
If the LED does not come on when you press a 
button, the battery is dead.

Security System

Immobilizer System

The immobilizer system prevents a key that has not been pre-registered from 
starting the power system. Each key contains electronic transmitters that use 
electronic signals to verify the key.

Pay attention to the following when pressing the POWER button:
• Do not allow objects that emit strong radio waves near the POWER button.
• Make sure the key is not covered by or touching a metal object.
• Do not bring a key from another vehicle’s immobilizer system near the POWER 

button.

• Do not put the key near magnetic items. Electronic devices, such as televisions 

and audio systems emit strong magnetic fields. Note that even a key chain can 
become magnetic.

Security System Alarm

The security system alarm activates when the trunk, hood or doors are forcibly 
opened. The alarm does not activate if the trunk or doors are opened with the key, 
remote transmitter or keyless access system.

However, the alarm activates if a door is opened with the key, then the hood is 
opened before the power mode is set to ON.

When the security system alarm activates

The horn sounds intermittently and some exterior lights flash.

To deactivate the security system alarm

Unlock the vehicle using the remote transmitter or keyless access system, or the 
power mode is set to ON. The system, along with the horn and flashing lights, is 
deactivated.

Immobilizer System

NOTICE

Leaving the keyless access remote in the vehicle can 
result in theft or accidental movement of the vehicle.
Always take the key with you whenever you leave the 
vehicle unattended.

Do not alter the system or add other devices to it.
Doing so may damage the system and make your 
vehicle inoperable.

To cancel the security system alarm

The security system is canceled when the vehicle is unlocked using the remote 
transmitter, keyless access system, or the power mode is set to ON. The security 
system alarm indicator goes off at the same time.

If the 12-volt battery goes dead after you have set the 
security system alarm, the security alarm may activate 
once the 12-volt battery is recharged or replaced.
If this occurs, deactivate the security system alarm by 
unlocking a door using the remote transmitter or 
keyless access system.

Do not alter the system or add other devices to it.
Doing so may damage the system and make your 
vehicle inoperable.
